Who can visit an assessment centre?
We are only testing individuals who meet the Ontario Government criteria for testing.  This includes individuals who:

• are showing symptoms of COVID-19
• are direct contacts of a confirmed case
• were alerted to an exposure by their public health unit or the COVID-19 Alert App
• live or work in a setting that has a COVID-19 outbreak
• are in a high-risk group as defined by provincial health official
• require a test to visit a long-term care resident
• require a test prior to surgery

Please note that we are unable to test children under the age of 2.  Any child under the age of 2 experiencing signs or symptoms of COVID-19 can be taken to our Emergency Department for evaluation.

Tests for international travel
Individuals are no longer able to get a COVID-19 test at an Assessment Centre for the purpose of international travel clearance.   

Our Assessment Centre will not be testing individuals who do not meet the above criteria.  Making an appointment does not guarantee that you will be tested.
Please complete the Government of Ontario’s Self-Assessment Tool if you are unsure as to whether you should be tested.

What happens at my appointment?
This is a drive-through assessment centre – you will remain in your vehicle the entire time.

When you arrive at the centre, a staff member will determine your eligibility for a COVID-19 test. The test involves taking a specimen from the back of your nose.

How do I find out my results?
You can find your COVID-19 test results by visiting the province’s website. 

Our Infection Prevention & Control Officer will contact you directly, as well as your local Public Health office only if your result is positive.  
If you have not received your results within 7 business days, please call our Health Information Department (705) 435-3377 ext. 1216.

How long will it take to receive my results?​
It is currently taking 2-3 days for results to return. This can fluctuate due to volume at the time.
